A lot of dust is possible east of LA, but unlike in Berlin http://www.austouring.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6621 we chose a Harley Tour.
Harley Davidson? No I never will ride one! But when you are in California and you have to drive on blacktop - then it is time to break the rule.

Thanks to Bernd and Mark I will use their pics as well in this RR.

After we had our duty done, we spent the afternoon before the ride in Anaheim.
Goofy's haute cuisine nearly caused a stomach upset.

The Anaheim Ducks were playing against Chicago, so off we went.

The next morning we were the first who entered the branch of Eaglerider. They rent everything from HD to Yamaha.

As I said, we had three days to ride. Our idea was to make a loop covering Joshua-Tree-Nationalpark in the east and San Diego in the south.
Unfortunately a week before our arrival they had heavy rainfall in SoCal. https://watchers.news/2019/02/18/los...ht-california/

But that's what Albert Hammond told us years ago:

Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California, but girl, don't they warn ya
It pours, man, it pours….

Daughter reported the same from the Napa Valley....rain for weeks and snow up in the Sierras.

Then it all flipped straight into summer last week, with 30C+ every day.
That Little Tujunga Canyon Rd. looks good.....and all those forestry roads to the east of it, like that Mt. Gleasson....lots of camping areas up there in the hills, too.
